Ethereum maintains stability amidst potential selling pressure: Will $4.5K support continue?
In the world of cryptocurrency, Ethereum [ETH] has been making waves lately, with a notable increase in price and a strengthening of bullish sentiment among traders.
According to data from Binance, the ETH/USDT Long/Short Ratio reached 2.17, indicating that a significant number of traders are betting on Ethereum's continued upward trend. This bullish sentiment was further supported by the 68.49% of traders on Binance who held long positions for Ethereum, while only 31.51% stayed short.
The price of Ethereum increased from $4,433 to $4,550 during the period, and was trading at $4,507 at press time, showing a 0.35% daily increase. This uptick in price was accompanied by a surge in spot trading volume for Ethereum, which jumped 25% during this period.
The increase in Ethereum Active Addresses, which surged by 108k during the past 48 hours, suggests growing interest among investors and rapid adoption. This surge in activity could potentially trigger a rally toward $4,865, as holding $4,500 for Ethereum could already indicate a bullish case for the cryptocurrency.
However, it's important to note that a drop below $4,500 might invalidate the bullish case and spark heavy selling. If this were to happen, Ethereum could face selling pressure, as was the case over the past week when the price of Ethereum dropped from 17.205 million to 17.073 million in Ethereum Exchange Reserves.
Despite this recent downturn, Ethereum faced resistance at a descending trendline but managed to break out above that barrier, clearing space for further gains. The decrease in Ethereum Exchange Reserves is a bullish signal for ETH holders, as it suggests that selling pressure was absorbed by investors and long-term holders.
Moreover, some analysts predict that the next significant price levels for Ethereum (ETH) could be around $4,000 to $4,800 by the end of 2025. Some even suggest that the price could potentially rise as high as $8,000 in the short term due to strong market momentum and institutional interest. Longer-term forecasts by some experts suggest much higher targets, including up to $60,000 within five years.
One interesting development is the growth of PancakeSwap, with Binance users playing a significant role in its growth. This growth could potentially contribute to Ethereum's continued upward trend.
In conclusion, the current sentiment for Ethereum [ETH] has strengthened as Exchange Reserves fell, Active Addresses climbed, and bullish price action held above key levels. As such, investors and traders alike should keep a close eye on Ethereum's performance in the coming days and weeks.
